CAR: M3 Generations Driven Back-to-Back
Wanted to share a nice short article from "CAR" which sampled the 4 different era M3s in the lead up to the new GTS-dedicated August issue of the magazine.

E46 FTW...I am a bit biased though!
Great picture, can't wait for the next gen F30 M3.

If the CSL had an available 6MT then it would be my favorite.

Care to elaborate? I owned an e36 m3 before and with coilovers I thought it handled superbly on the track. Sure it didn't have a "real" M engine in it (S52 was basically just a bored out M52), but it was still a solid engine nonetheless and a great engine to go FI with.
I agree that the e46 m3 is still by far the best looking.

August issue not out yet in Canada... at least not as of few days ago in my locale. Will look for it at news stand this weekend again as it looks like a good issue to pick up. Thanks for the heads-up!

Indeed, if only it were a sedan, and if only they still coated them in Imola Red paint, but I'm biased as well...
I love my e46, but that e92 is very nice!
